Hey everyone I'm new here so please forgive me for any errors!
I built a pc a few weeks ago, my first build and everything was working fine until a few days ago, my gpu began throttling when both using the gpu and using peripherals. I have been running Furmark, Cinebench, and Heaven benchmarking softwares and I get great scores, if i watch the benchmark run..when using the mouse at all, the gpu lags to about around 5 frames in Furmark, when it was running at 140. Similarly, gaming was great, but the lag and throttles are unforgiving.
I run two monitors and watch the pc specs while gaming or benchmarking, and can see the gpu lag spike to around 5-10% usage, when it was around 95% before the spike.
I've checked all the drivers (i believe) and i think all the hardware is connected properly. Please help!! Thanks in advance!
